Re: ScooterGT Magazine
Looks good, when I was in Spain last month I was tempted to buy a scooter mag with loads of new models featured.. but alas it was in Spanish. I go on clubxmax forum now & again and they were on about the xmax production being moved from Spain to France.

Re: ScooterGT Magazine
The white TMax with the different body kit on page 43 is very drool worthy
Actually all those MK4's look hot!! I really disliked the display models at the shows they so did not do it justice.

Well, I still love the red/white/black version that we've seen already, and I think the bronze coloured version on p60-1 is stunning!Funkycowie wrote:The white TMax with the different body kit on page 43 is very drool worthy

Its clear that the new TMax looks fab in bright and vibrant colour schemes - so why do Yamaha only make white, silver, dark grey and black????

Because they know the owners will change them any way?

Shame Twist & Go magazine isn't more like that.

Re: ScooterGT Magazine
Magazines in France and Germany always put ours to shame for production, style and content.
When foreign journalists interview me they have more knowledge, they have done more research and they ask more and better questions - and they have to do it in english.
Somebody like Editions Lariviere in France give me a grilling and test the design for themselves and write 12 in depth pages.
Some british journalists more or less ask me to write it for them and provide them with pictures. That isn't an unbiased article, its just a press release - half a page of fluff.
The publishing houses must be set up in a different way over there.

Re: ScooterGT Magazine
I've said that for years about Twist & Go, their reviews are just glorified press releases with a little bit of crap added for good measure like how comfy the seat is or how grippy the tyres are.

Re: ScooterGT Magazine
Why do all of the new models look like they've been carved instead of molded? Do all of the designers have coffee together and read each others' minds? I much prefer my Burger with the softer lines. As regards the mag and the piccies, we get nothing that scooter-centric over here in the Colonies. Not enough scoots on the road to make it worthwhile. Everything is cruiser/sport bike centered.
